So I have been talking to a few different people about the possibility of getting someone in town (Seattle, WA.) to offer a weekend workshop on Sumo. One of the individuals that might be able to do this is two time world champ Byambajav Ulambayar from Mongolia. Andrew Freund would also possibly attend to offer his insight into the art.
I am basically putting out some feelers to see if there would be an interest both locally, and/or nationally to attend such a gathering? I have not worked out price (though nothing I do seminar wise is over $150 for a weekend), nor schedule (possibly Nov 08, or Feb 09). Like I said, just mulling this over and seeing if there is enough interest to support bringing him in.
Let me know (only seriously please) if you are in the area and would be interested, or if you are out of town and would be willing to travel to do something like this.

Thanks
Jake

Even though I wouldn't be able to make it, I'd be interested to know what would be covered. Granted I know little about modern or ancient Sumo (other then a few youtube clips and a "little" light reading), I've read that ancient Sumo contains a huge amount of throwing techniques and was the grandfather to younger Jujitsu styles and Judo.
